I am terribly bad at picking up on certain things in shows, so bare with me...

What it the show led you to believe that Chicago was behind the killing of that guy in his restaurant at the end?

Spoiler:

If you noticed earlier, when they were all meeting with Nucky, Al Capone was the driver for the restauranter/mafioso and the shorter mafioso. The shorter one who keep having to explain clams as the joke.

Later, when Al Capone delivered the hijacked Canadian Club in Chicago, it was to the shorter mafioso. I'm guessing they teamed up to have the guy in the restaurant whacked.

Man, I feel stupid. I don't really know who anyone is, who's on which side, etc. I usually do photo editing while I watch TV, this show seems like one I need to concentrate on. I'll have to watch the premiere again before episode 2 airs.

Loved it. They are being somewhat factual and used a lot of period authenticity. I never heard of Nucky but he was based on a real character. The reason and method of Colissimo's murder (ordered by Torrio) was true to life. The only thing I didn't agree with was that most accounts I've seen said Capone was the actual triggerman.

The History channel has had some great shows on the prohibition crime era
